Good morning, bar, long time no see! All moved in at the new place, and back to (ir)regular daily programming. There will be bits and bobs and fun little projects galore in the months ahead, but for the most part what's in storage is for storage and what's in the loft is in the loft. The weekend got a late start, but was spent doing a lot of relaxing. Farmer's Market on Saturday (still easy to get to on the Muni), then a bit of wandering around and then drinks and whatnot with friends at a place on the water a few blocks from our place. I spent most of Sunday catching up on sleep while Pandorra tinkered around on projects and made what might have been the best corned beef I've ever had in my life. All-day slow cook on stuff from our new favorite meat market, and she topped it off with a bunch of other goodies from Saturday's trip to the Farmer's Market. Now to dive into a new week and new projects and get caught up on things and see the posts and announcements from various artists about this year's projects (all the grant applicants were contacted last week).

Brides Of March sounds cool, Doc. Thanks, Ugly Dougly, now I'm craving Beard Papa I saw the news last week about Bruno selling on. Good for him on his retirement and all, but a little sad to see it go/change hands. Hopefully whoever buys the places keeps the names.

What an excellent bike rack, Elorrum! Thanks to a care package that arrived yesterday from a friend of mine at Sony with an advance on a new release, my day's off to a solid start. The volume's low right now, but will be cranking up once the neighbors have a chance to get up and moving. Between that and caffeine, I'll be bouncing off the walls in no time

Yes!*munches on a cookie and watches the orange electric glow of the old radio's vacuum tubes fade, hoping to hear more news from Clearlake again sometime*

Well, winter is almost over here, which is ok, because that means that spring is right around the corner, which is ok, because that means summer isn't far behind, which is ok, because that means that TTITD is fast approaching, ..and that, my friends, sounds great!

*Zips in...........Sets out large pitcher of cold milk for BVB and MDF to have with their cookies. Finds a saucer and pours cream in it and sets it on Bar for LCN who is out gallavanting around the boards somewhere......*

Good evening, everyone!I don't know about anyone else, but I'm certainly DONE with winter for now!

LeChat, how ya been? Hope to see you in the dust this year!

MDF, glad you're feeling better.

So the theme this year is like a giant camp out in the desert? With people bringing lots of shit from all over? uh.. -Marscrumbs

Drinks all round! I finally got over to the market to replenish the vodka, after slaving away all day over hot pixels and vertices. I'll probably end up slaving over them all night too, but at least I'll have had a few beverages along the way...
